Bobcats Hire Liebovitz, Winters As Assistants

MONDAY, 1:32pm: The Bobcats have officially named Winters as an assistant coach, in addition to Leibovitz, the team announced today in a press release. The pair will join Stephen Silas and Rick Brunson as assistants on head coach Mike Dunlap's staff.

THURSDAY, 4:59pm: The Bobcats have officially announced the addition of Dan Leibovitz to their bench as an assistant coach, tweets The Charlotte Observer's Rick Bonnell. Formerly an assistant coach with the University of Pennsylvania, Leibovitz will assume the role of player development coach on a team that has made that area a priority. He spent the last two seasons at the University of Pennsylvania, but before that served as the head coach at the University of Hartford, and the lead assistant at Temple. 

The team is also expected to round out their bench by adding Brian Winters as another assistant coach shortly, tweets Bonnell. Winters brings veteran experience as a former head coach in the NBA, leading the Vancouver Grizzlies when they were an expansion team in 1995, and also being an assistant with the Cavaliers, Hawks, Nuggets, and Warriors.
